Aquarium paraphernalia

If the cops ever search my room I’m totally going to jail.

“And what are these syringes for, ma’am?”

“Accurately dosing my fish tanks with dechlorinator and mineral buffers.”

“Mm hm. And this white powder.”

“It’s calcium for my snail.” *points at snail tank*

*looks into tank, sees nothing bc snail is in the coco soil again* “Okay, you just tell the judge that.” *pulls out cuffs*

me: “Wait who’s going to mist the snail tank if I’m in jail?!”

The Royal Family of Winnipeg - aka the Royal Family of Disaster Lesbians

Duchess Rachel Scieszka

“Give me those earrings, Rachel.” 

The famous “R” from the book series. 

Recruited into VFD when she was quite young and became fast friends with Lemony Snicket and Beatrice Baudelaire. She also had a friendly relationship with Olaf, where they pretended to hate each other as their way of expressing affection. 

Incredibly into Astronomy, especially Meteorology. It’s her special interest, and her star charts are actually quite easy to hide codes in for the wary eye. 

Figured out she was a lesbian when she was quite young- 13 or 14. Was really stressed about it because while VFD is surprisingly accepting (don’t care who you like so long as you get the job done), her parents were quite old-fashioned. 

She became the duchess very young, too- quite soon after graduation, as her mother was killed in a car accident. Her father had died earlier of lung cancer. 

Rachel is actually quite good at running Winnipeg, as she’s very good at strategy and politics- she’s also quite good at slipping in favors for her beloved VFD, such as hiding a spy, distracting an enemy, or slipping a note from one guest to another. She also was very close with her daughters, and with the friends who managed to keep in contact, and invites everyone to masked balls quite often. 

Her mansion caught fire around the time of The Austere Academy, though she escaped. 

Between The Ersatz Elevator and The Slippery Slope, the home she was currently staying in was found burnt to the ground, and she was presumed dead. However, it’s uncertain if this is truly the case... 

Lady Duchess Jacquelyn Scieszka

Was adopted when Rachel was quite young, actually, but R couldn’t stand to leave her in the orphanage any longer than necessary. 

Jacquelyn lived with her birth parents until she was three, and she only has very foggy memories- a cramped house, angry shouts, bad smells. R eventually told her that she’d been taken away to the orphanage because her parents were abusive. 

Jacquelyn was recruited when she was nine, but due to being the child of the Duchess of Winnipeg, she had some perks that other recruits did not, such as visits home. 

When Jacquelyn was 15, she asked Rachel why she’d adopted her, expecting her to say that the young Jacquelyn had been curious, or interested in reading, or showed potential for VFD. She was pleasantly surprised by the actual answer. 

Rachel had visited the orphanage for a normal public service- going to the orphanage and spending a day with the kids, reading or doing crafts and encouraging them. When she’d entered the room for the smaller children, Jacquelyn was the only one unafraid of the stranger, and she immediately toddled over to her, throwing her arms up so she could be held and asking for bubbles. 

For the rest of the day, Jacquelyn had been very attached to R, and when she sat down to read, Jacquelyn plopped in her lap and fell asleep. After that, R decided that she had to adopt this child now. 

Was a Snow Scout for a year or two pre-recruitment. Nothing really notable happened while she was there but she enjoyed the camping aspect. 

Most of her volunteer work was in Winnipeg until she became Poe’s secretary to keep an eye on the orphan management. She’s just as good at politics as the rest of her family, but she’s less interested in that than they are and more interesting in her VFD work. 

She was devastated when she received news that her mother had perished in a terrible fire, and even more when she returned to Winnipeg and found out that her little sister was on a Snow Scout trip and had not received the news. 

She was trying to figure out how to break it to Maya until she received news of the kidnapping, and then she was terrified. Whenever she wasn’t in political meetings or preparations, she was contacting VFD to try and get someone to rescue her sister. 

Lady Maya Sciescka

“I heard that it’s a metaphor for death!”

Her birth parents, citizens of Winnipeg, mysteriously died in a fire when she was barely a few months old. Rachel was part of the volunteer group who put out the fire and managed to rescue her, and by the time they found out Maya had no biological family to go to, Rachel had gotten very attached. 

Since Maya is so much younger than her older sister, at first Jacquelyn didn’t have much attachment to her; she only visited home occasionally, anyway, she was an adult with a life and a job. But one day Jacquelyn came home and Maya- who was three or four at the time- immediately saw her, dropped her toys, and raced over, grabbing onto her legs for a hug and screaming that her big sister is home! And from that moment on Jacquelyn was like “okay. Okay so she’s my sister now, I will die for her, got it.” 

like Mother like Daughter, I guess.

Maya wasn’t recruited into VFD mainly because 1) they already had a member of the Winnipeg family (and the actual heir) and they didn’t need a spare because Jacquelyn was good at her job, 2) They honestly were running pretty low on resources and Maya was way too wild for them to try to handle. They told R to make sure her education was kept up and they’d recruit her when they could, and R was just fine with this decision because it meant she could spend more time with her daughter. 

is Jacquelyn a little jealous of this? Maybe, but she actually loves being in VFD and doesn’t blame Rachel or Maya for this so it doesn’t affect much.

Incredibly into the political side of being a monarch- she and her Mother can talk politics all day, and she tries to keep up with foreign relations and, most importantly, current issues within the Kingdom so she can brainstorm ways to fix them. She really wants her country to be prosperous and happy, and she always tries to look out for what could help the citizens. R is super proud of her for this. 

Actually has some serious social anxiety, though, and though she can talk really well when she’s with her family or close friends, when she’s around people she gets really nervous and can only get a few words out before she has to sit down. R was working on getting her medication and/or therapy before the Snow Scout Incident. 

It was family tradition to join the Snow Scouts at some point so Maya was pretty excited to do so and talked about their False Spring trip for weeks on end. She was chosen to carry the springpole and was so honored. 

She wasn’t super close with the Snow Scouts pre-kidnapping, though she got along great with Stephen and Chloe, but after the kidnapping they all became inseparable. 

While Jacquelyn became duchess, Maya was in an underwater submarine overcoming her anxiety to lead a revolt and figure out how to pilot this damn thing.

It was 1987 when I first came about this picture and I remember saying to myself “I want my dogs to do that” but the truth is I didn’t know what they were doing and who’s dogs are they? . . I found out that the picture is of a well respected dog trainer and PitBull activist “Diane Jessup” and her dogs, working a Spring Pole. If you’re a true dogman and BULLDOG enthusiast, then you BETTER know who she is but what is a Spring Pole? . . A Spring Pole is a conditioning tool used to develop grip and drive on dogs. It helps in building muscle tone, gripping power, wrestling skills and drive. Unfortunately, the law views this type of conditioning as unlawful, ownership of a “Spring Pole” can be seen as dog fighting paraphernalia and a violation of the law. . . However viewed, this is a form of “tug of war” game for dogs. Today one can walk into a pet store and purchase the variety of “tug toys” to play a similar game your dog but because this type of item is associated with the Pit Bull breed, it’s frowned upon. . . Many Dog men still condition their dogs by way of Spring pole and other methods such as “treadmills” It’s common to see a well conditioned dog latch onto a piece of leather attached at the end, bite down and hang til they tired only to go back again. . . They’re many exercises, training regimens and information that have immense benefits to a dogs overall well being in building drives and conditioning that old school dog men used back in the days that today can be utilized but unfortunately aren’t shared due to fear of the law and pets possibly being confiscated. . . #dianejessup #pitbull #facts #pitbullsofinstagram #history #dontbullymybreed #bulldog #dog #dogs #doglover #dogstagram #puppy #puppylove #dogtrainer #dogtraining #workingdog #springpole #apbt #exercise #instadog #instapet #instagood #instadaily #pets #oldschool #canecorso #presacanario #dogoargentino #bullterrier #boerboel (at Eagle Rock, Los Angeles) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoKrn_OHCmS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ifj5qoil0tvw

Pei and I found an old tire on a walk a few weeks back. Finally got a setup for it that I like! #springpole (at Pasco County, Florida)

[baddogfilm]

BAD DOG - ENVIRONMENT

BARN

The old barn where Duke would host organized dogfights. It was rotting when Maggie was 10, god knows how it’s still standing. Lit only by lanterns and sun or moonlight. The plywood fighting pit is stained with blood.

DIVE BAR

The bar where Maggie works. Shady, slimy, smelly. Low-lit, lots of LED lights, seen through a sheen of cigarette smoke. Often overcrowded with intoxicated men.

ROADSIDE

Seen both at night and during the day, this is the road that Maggie takes to walk back and forth from work and home. Cracked, uneven, and unkempt residential roads and sidewalks (if there are even sidewalks at all.) Lit only by streetlights.

MAGGIE’S BATHROOM

A small, outdated apartment bathroom. Lived-in, messy, kind of dirty. Beauty products are left laying out on the sink, but Maggie never has enough time to put stuff away before or after work. Evidence of mold in the tiles. Fluorescent lighting.

SCHOOL PLAYGROUND

Playground at a school in a low-income neighborhood. Not remembered fondly.

DUKE’S BACKYARD

Large, fenced-in backyard. Dogs tied up with heavy chains, small doghouses, barrels, springpoles, and just plain junk is strewn about the property. Simultaneously overgrown and barren of plants.

YOUNG MAGGIE’S BEDROOM

A cozy little girl’s room from the early 2000′s. It was never really well-decorated or clean, but it was certainly lived-in. This bedroom was where Maggie spent most of her time as a child. There’s a hole or two in the wall barely covered up with a princess poster.

I keep changing my springpole setup and this one seems to be the best design. I’ll post photos of the setup soon.
